Template of Apples on A Branch

      Children will like to cut and color the kind of apple that they know. Then the teacher may choose the best apples of one variety for the class to arrange on a branch, which has been previously cut and taped on a window or stapled to a bulletin board. If desired the leaves may be cut separately from the large pattern below.

The Tale of the Jack-o'-Lantern

The Tale of the Jack-o'-Lantern

A Jack-o'-Lantern played some pranks
One moonlit Hallowe'en,
He started out all by himself
Determined to be mean.

He scared a tiny pussy cat,
A little puppy, too.
He made a cunning baby cry -
A dreadful thing to do !

He laughed and thought of other schemes.
Oh, he was bad that night.
His one idea was what to do
To bring somebody fright.

At last the joke was turned on him,
He chased a pussy cat.
It was a witch's pride and joy,
But how could he know that?

The big black pussy turned around.
It arched its back and tail,
It launched its long sharp claws at him
With snarls and long-drawn wail.

Its mistress witch then came to sight
And whacked him with her broom.
So that is how one pumpkin head
Was cracked unto his doom.

Pilgrims and Turkeys for Bulletin Boards

Simple large turkey pattern.

        These vintage outlines of a turkey and children dressed as Pilgrims may be used on your bulletin boards, walls or as window decorations. 

Simple figures of pilgrim children.

Large Clock Face Pattern for Classroom Use

        A large clock face for teachers to print out and use with students in their classrooms. Comes with large and small hands to identify hours and minutes of the day on a traditional clock. Help young students practice reading time.

Punch a hole in the middle of a clock face mounted on cardboard. Cut out hour and minute hands and punch holes on the ends. Insert a brad into all three holes and bend it at the back. Now students may use the clock to practice telling and writing time.


Halloween Window Decorations

Big cut-outs of a vintage jack-o-lantern, flying bat and black cat.

        I've restored these vintage, Halloween patterns for teachers to use in the decoration of their classroom windows, or on Bulletin Boards. If you need something festive for the walls in your room or in the school buildings halls, wherever these may be needed, educators are sure to need a few patterns to enlarge, cut from construction paper and apply to their room decor.
